Li Keju was in Youzhou City, and he had sent more than a dozen rescue letters to various departments in Youzhou Town, but no one came until this time. His heart became more and more annoyed, since the various departments in Youzhou refused to save him and wanted to sit and watch him be destroyed by Li Jing, then he had nothing to hesitate about.

He immediately summoned the old ministry brought from Yanzhou to discuss with the Uighur, Khitan, Xi and other Hu generals, and asked Liu Rengong to explain Li Jing's request.

Li Ke held a golden crown to tie his hair, a jade belt wrapped around his waist, a long sword in his hand, his eyes swept over the generals with coldness, and he slowly spoke: "My father is dedicated to saving the people of Youzhou and facing Li Jing. Previously, he also took advantage of his father's dispatch of troops to plot against Youzhou. Now Li Jing's army is gathered under the city, and the various departments in Youzhou refuse to come to help. It's about waiting for me to die! If they are unjust, don't blame me for being unkind. For today's plan, with our little people, we can't stop Li Jing. And even if Li Jing retreats, the next ministries that are waiting around and coveting the position of commander for a long time will tear us to pieces. ”

The generals under the seat are basically generals from Yanzhou, and they also agree with Li Keju's words at this time. At the beginning, Li Maoxun was also in the wrong position, how could those military leaders have much loyalty to the Li family? However, they are all in the same boat as Li Keju, if Li Keju is finished. They won't end well either.

"The big marshal said what to do. Let's do what we do. Li Quanzhong was the first to stand up and make a statement. As a general on the side of Yanzhou, Li Quanzhong's qualifications were slightly lower than Gao Shunli's brothers, but now Gao Shunli has defeated Li Jing. Some of the generals of Yanzhou also died in the previous battles, so Li Quanzhong and Liu Rengong, who were originally the generals of Li Keju's old department, have now become Li Keju's core generals.

In particular, the left army led by Li Quanzhong was also defeated by Li Jing this time, but although it was defeated, it did not surrender like Gao Shunli, and after receiving Li Keju's rescue letter. In the end, he mobilized 5,000 soldiers and horses from Xuanzhou, and led his troops back to Youzhou City with his sons Li Congwei and Li Kuangchou.

With only 5,000 soldiers under his command, Li Quanzhong's father and son are now the number one generals under Li Keju.

Li Quanzhong has expressed his position, and others have also expressed their support for Li Keju.

Liu Rengong also expressed his support on the side, although he was locked up in the black prison for a period of time, but he was blessed by misfortune, and he did not die in the catastrophe, and the blessing had arrived. As the general of the three thousand Li Keju soldiers to dominate the capital, Liu Rengong can now be said to be Li Keju's absolute confidant.

"Li Jing is unstoppable, and the generals of Youzhou have their own ghosts. If we don't find a way to protect ourselves, then there is no place for us in this secluded land. The current situation. Ben Shuai intends to temporarily compromise with Li Jing and admit defeat and surrender to tide over this difficulty. Although Li Keju is as brave as Li Maoxun, he is more resourceful than Li Maoxun. Li Maoxun just didn't see the situation clearly, so he was most defeated in the end. He would never repeat his father's footsteps.

Regarding the current situation, Li Keju saw it very clearly, now that his father is dead, everyone in Youzhou is staring at his position behind Lu Longjun. If Li Jing wasn't still there, they would have come to the door long ago. Li Jing is now not a killer of his father and an enemy, but a talisman. Only by relying on Li Jing can he possibly sit in this position, although this will definitely come at a great cost, but he has no choice. Unless he is asked to give up the position of the marshal of the Lu Long Army, but this handsome position was obtained by their father and son with great difficulty, how can they give it up.

"Marshal, Li Jing proposed to lead troops into Youzhou City, is this too risky? What if he turns his face and doesn't recognize people at that time, and directly takes Youzhou City? Li Quanzhong said worriedly.

Li Keju also had this worry in his heart, but Li Jing's conditions were not discounted. His father thought that Li Jing was young and could be bullied, so he fell to the point where he is now. Raising his eyebrows, he said slowly: "Li Jing is still more trustworthy. Moreover, although the Zhendong Army is strong, it is not strong enough to be able to swallow Lulong Town in one bite. Don't look at the various departments in Youzhou now sitting and watching Li Jing besiege the city, it was Li Jing who released his words earlier, saying that this time he did it to us, just to ask my father to repay the debt owed to him, so the other departments will sit idly by. But if Li Jing really has the intention of seizing Youzhou, it will infringe on the interests of all Youzhou soldiers and horses, and they will definitely unite at that time. Li Jing didn't dare to take this risk. ”

"Dashuai is right, as long as we are willing to rely on Li Jing now, for Li Jing, this is already the best result. Too greedy, he gets nothing. I've dealt with Li Jing many times, and this person is a smart person. ”

After the crowd agreed, they agreed to all the requests put forward by Li Jing, and even agreed to the entry of the Zhendong Army into the city. Li Keju first forcibly lent 2 million yuan of money and 500,000 stone rice from the wealthy families in Youzhou City. Anyway, many of these people are followed by the generals of various departments in Youzhou. These people want him dead, and he doesn't need to save face for them.

After the money and food were gathered, the sister who was sent by Li Jing before was a slave sister, and this time, he simply sent his own sister with the slave sister.

Liu Rengong took the recruited people to transport the money, cloth, grain and other goods to the Zhendong military camp, and presented Li Jing with Li Keju's attached letter.

Zhang Hong happily went to receive the money and goods, Li Jing accepted the form and letter, and sent Liu Rengong back.

"Why did Li Keju agree so quickly, is there any fraud in this?" Wang Zhong pinched his chin and frowned.

Li Zhen smiled, "I don't think there is fraud in this matter." Li Keju is now trapped in a lonely city, how many soldiers and horses do he have in his hands? Even if he wanted to set up an ambush in the city, he would be able to ambush our army? Moreover, the key is the current chaos within Lu Junjun. Li Maoxun first killed Chen Gongyan, the general of Youzhou, and then drove away Zhang Gongsu, relying on a fraudulent word to sit in the handsome position. Now he has been sitting for less than two months and is dead. His son though he claimed to be the queen. But Li Maoxun's original troops and horses. The generals of the Gao family in Yanzhou took half of Li Maoxun's soldiers and horses to join us, and the remaining half was discounted a lot. Now Li Keju's life is not easy, internal and external troubles, worse than his original situation. He belongs to us, and he can continue to sit in this position, otherwise, I am afraid that he will not be able to sit steadily for even two months. ”

"In that case, then why don't we just kill Li Keju. Occupy Youzhou City by yourself? Qin Zongshou sat down and shouted in a loud voice.

"Wrong, wrong, wrong!"

As soon as Qin Zongshou's words came out, everyone present had a smile on their faces, this Qin Zongshou was tall and big, and he didn't say anything about stepping down immediately, but when it came to these attempts, he was born with a lack of it.

Li Jing also smiled, "Half of the territory of our Zhendong Army is in Dengzhou in Ziqing Town, and half is in southern Liaonan in Liaodong, which is already separated by a sea. And this secluded state. Separated by another sea, although the Zhendong army is strong. It's not strong enough to have the ability to expand so much now. What's more, Youzhou is a big town, with many states and many soldiers and horses. Now, if it weren't for our previous statement that we would only fight Li Maoxun, and the other ministries were unwilling to make the first bird, how could it be so smooth. Don't look at Li Maoxun who took Youzhou so easily, it was because he was also a general in Youzhou Town, and they had internal contradictions. If we were to take Youzhou by force, the situation would be completely different.

Li Jing still wanted to take Youzhou, but after careful thinking, he still understood that now was not the time. This time it went so smoothly, firstly, because the operation of the Zhendong Army was smooth, and secondly, because the various departments of the Lu Long Army were unwilling to obey Li Maoju's orders, and various factors caused the current outcome. But according to the information that Li Jing has obtained so far, the entire Lu Long Army has been regrouped, although they have no intention of coming immediately, but if Li Jing has any thoughts about Youzhou, it is estimated that these people will eventually unite to deal with him.

On the contrary, if this Li Keju is really willing to belong, whether it is true or false, Li Jing is very happy. Through Li Keju to infiltrate his own power in Youzhou, or in other words, by supporting Li Keju, you can make Youzhou unable to restore calm in a short time, and they will continue to compete for this handsome position.

On September 23, the gate of Youzhou was opened, and Li Keju led the generals of Youzhou and the wealthy families in the city out of the city to welcome Li Jing's army into the city.

Li Jing directly drove the entire army into Youzhou City, and when he entered the city, the whole army deliberately changed into clean and tidy military robes, the armor was also polished, and the weapons were even sharper. At the gate of the city, Li Keju bowed to Li Jing and called him uncle. Li Jing accepted Li Keju's nephew in front of the people and soldiers of the entire Youzhou City. When Li Jing helped Li Ke to lift up, the battle between Li Jing and Li Maoxun's father and son was over.

However, although he accepted Li Keju as a nephew, Li Jing did not accept his two sisters himself. Instead, let the two nephews of Li Jing, who followed in the army, marry two of them respectively. One of them is also Li Jingcong's uncle, the grandson of Li Chun, the secretary of the Zhendong Army. According to the generation, he is Li Jing's nephew, and now he is married to Li Keju's sister, but he is also of the same generation, and he is the right person.

The marriage of the two families also allowed the two families, which were full of collusion of interests from the beginning, into a temporary honeymoon period.

Li Keju recognized Li Jing as his uncle, and betrayed the interests of Youzhou, and was willing to be Li Jing's vassal, which made the Youzhou military leaders who were originally waiting to watch Li Jing destroy Li Keju were stunned for a while, and no one expected such a result. Just now, Li Keju, who had a grudge against Li Jing for killing his father, recognized the thief as his father in a blink of an eye!

It was only at this time that they discovered that in the blink of an eye, they had fallen into a troublesome situation, and after the two Li united, they suddenly didn't know what to do. If you want to send troops to deal with Li Keju and compete for the position, you will undoubtedly have to face Li Jing and the Zhendong Army. At this time, whoever comes out first may be subjected to the joint suppression of Li Jing and Li Keju first, and then it will still be cheaper for others.

The generals of Youzhou all have such thoughts, they are all waiting and waiting, waiting for other birds to come out first, but unfortunately this time, there is no such bird as Li Maoxun who jumped out on his own. Therefore, after Li Jing entered Youzhou City, all parties in Youzhou did not move and did not react. (To be continued......)
